Our Commitment
EconLearn is built for students and educators. Our business model is straightforward: schools and students pay for the platform. That means:
- We never sell student data
- We never show ads to students or teachers
- We handle all data in accordance with FERPA
Privacy is not an afterthought. It is central to how we build and operate EconLearn.
FERPA Compliance
When providing services to schools and districts, EconLearn acts as a “school official” under FERPA with a legitimate educational interest in student education records.
- We use student education records only for the purposes for which the school authorized access.
- We do not disclose student records to third parties except as required to operate the platform or as directed by the school.
- We will sign a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) or Student Data Privacy Agreement with any school or district upon request.
